Drink You Away

Bitter sweet thing.

Could this be a dream

Or just the same nightmare that keeps me awake?

Feel it in my brain.

A tall shot of pain.

Pour a little up now for the love that we've made.

I feel it in the morning.

You’re still here in the morning.

I see you but you're gone

Telephone a doctor: I’m not okay.

The bottom of the bottle

To fill this empty heart up.

A thousand proof

Don’t change the truth.

I tried it but I can’t.

I can’t drink you away.

I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,

I’ve tried all of their friends.

But I can’t drink you away.

All these rocks–I can’t swim

Out of this skin

I'm living in.

Say

Now tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break, ooh?

Tell me, baby, oh, yeah, now don't they make a medicine for heart break?

Got a pounding on my brain.

So I drowned it away.

When the sun comes up tomorrow you can find me doing the same.

'Cause I just can’t forget

The way we turned out this bad/bed.

And now the only thing that sleeps here is a ghost of you instead.

And then I feel it in the morning.

You’re still here in the morning.

I see you but you're gone.

Telephone a doctor: I’m not okay.

Bottom of the bottle

To fill this empty heart up.

A thousand proof

Don’t change the truth.

I tried it but I can’t.

I can’t drink you away.

I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,

I’ve tried all of their friends.

But I can’t drink you away (no, I can't).

All these rocks–I can’t swim

Out of this skin

I'm living in.

Say

Tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break?

Oh, tell me, baby, one time, come on, don't they make a medicine for heart break?

Break it down

I can’t drink you. No, I can’t drink you away, away.

I can’t drink you. I can’t drink you away, away.

I can’t drink you. I can’t drink you away, away.

Oh, I can’t drink you. No, I can’t drink you away, away.

I can’t drink you away.

I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,

I’ve tried all of their friends.

But I can’t drink you away.

All these rocks–I can’t swim

Out of this skin

I'm living in.

Say

So tell me, baby, don't they make a medicine for heart break (don't they, don't they, tell me, baby)?

Oh, tell me baby, one time, don't they make a medicine for heart break, yeah?

Tell me, baby, can't they make a medicine for my heart break, heart break?

Tell me, baby, yeah, can't they make a medicine for my heart break?

'Cause I can't drink you away.

I’ve tried Jack, I’ve tried Jim,

I’ve tried all of their friends.

I can’t drink you away.

All these rocks–I can’t swim

Out of this skin

I'm living in.
